Bryson DeChambeau’s final-round charge captured viewers’ imagination and provided so many of the major’s memorable moments
ander Schauffele won the 106th US PGA Championship but Bryson DeChambeau brought the thunder. Four days at Valhalla served as a reminder of DeChambeau’s star quality in, possibly beyond repair, by the arrival of the Saudi Arabian-backed LIV tour. Some shrugged when DeChambeau departed the PGA Tour for LIV; in Kentucky, he proved he has lost none of his ability to command attention.
So many of this major’s memorable moments involved DeChambeau rather than the champion. His reactions were often as good as his shots. DeChambeau chipped in at the 18th on Saturday, prompting scenes of euphoria. He blasted into trees on the 16th during round four, only for the ball to miraculously tumble out into the middle of the fairway. The Californian struck his next shot to tap-in range for a birdie.
“Sometimes I just go look myself in the face and just say: ‘You got to get it done.’ No matter what’s going on, no matter what you feel right now, you got to get the ball in the hole in the least amount of shots. Be better. I got to do better. And I did, I just was one shot short.”
